El Tigre
known since the Spanish conquest as "Itzamkanac"

One of the few remaining large pyramids in Mesoamerica which has not had the jungle cut back and the stones exposed for investigation - quite a bit about this structure is still unknown in 2002. Supposedly a complex that is larger than the Great Pyramid at Giza.
 

OLMEC CIVILIZATION: 1200BC- 600AD

Richardson has a fascination with the Olmec civilization because the facial features on the giant heads suggest that the people, after whom the heads were carved, where Africans - which has many ramifications for Ancient African history. Yet this idea is not dealt with by many archeologists at all.

"the Olmec spoke an aspect of the Manding languages spoken in West Africa, not Mixe- Zoquean as suggested by Terrence Kaufman. The African origin of the Olmec was based on the research of C.S. Rafinesque and Leo Wiener."
